Open Sesame

There are a number of cities in this great nation of ours that somehow have managed to merge all of the comforts of urban living with the more enjoyable aspects of nature. Such is the case with the urban hike, in which it is possible to quickly step away from the demands of urban life and seek refuge in the sanctity of nature. While the purist might allege that a hike should be done without some of the more modern conveniences afforded to us by technology, this is not always entirely practical.

Music is incredibly important for a hike, and you have to plan your soundtrack out in advance to do it right. But you do not want to be one of those people who blast their music out of their phone for everyone within earshot to hear, so it is best to bring a pair of earbuds along as well.

Case in point: A pair of Tags wireless earbuds from Outdoor Tech®can be paired to your smartphone, allowing you to keep your phone in your pocket and stream music as you go on your hike. You can also use the earbuds to take a phone call, or better yet, to ignore it altogether.

Whatever the case may be, few will argue that adding a pair of stylish earbuds to your arsenal of accessories won’t make your next urban hike more enjoyable. But don’t forget to make a playlist.
